Dear colleague,

REAL (Research group "Economics, policy analysis, and language" 
<https://www.ulster.ac.uk/research/topic/social-work-and-social-policy/research-themes/public-administration/research/real-group>) 
and the University of Jyväskylä, in cooperation with Ulster University, 
Andrássy-Universität Budapest, and the journal /Language Problems & 
Language Planning/, organises the *7th REAL Symposium on Language 
Economics and Policy <https://www.jyu.fi/en/events/real-symposium-2027>* 
on 20–21 May 2027 at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland).

The REAL symposia aim to discuss all aspects of language economics and 
language policy, and corresponding contributions are welcome. Especially 
welcome are papers that address the role of language skills within the 
context of increasing mobility, for instance, in migration, in the 
labour market, and in education. Contributions to the symposium can 
cover theoretical and empirical research, or the practical implications 
in terms of language policy and impact. The symposium is 
interdisciplinary, and contributions are accepted from economics, 
political science, sociology, law, sociolinguistics, and applied 
linguistics.

Keynote speakers:

  * François Grin, Université de Genève (University of Geneva)
  * Johan Häggman, Federal Union of European Nationalities/Die
    Föderalistische Union Europäischer Nationalitäten, FUEN
  * Maarit Koponen, Itä-Suomen yliopisto (University of Eastern Finland)

The call for papers 
<https://www.jyu.fi/en/events/real-symposium-2027> is now open for 
submissions. Please submit your abstract before *1 December 2026*.

All the best,

Michele Gazzola
